Computer Equipment Auctions
The available computer equipment auctions are mostly for refurbished computers, from, for example, manufacturers directly, from the public sector, and from resellers.
Online auctions provide a good way for companies to sell their overstocked, off-lease, and open-box items. In addition, it has been estimated that almost 5% of all computer products sold worldwide get returned to the distributor or manufacturer for one reason or another. These returns take place usually within 30-days of the original purchase, making nearly all of these items "good as new". After a refurbishment process, in which the equipment is tested and remanufactured to original specifications, these returned items can be auctioned to the public.
